Ducati has launched its new Monster in the Indian market. The 890cc liquid-cooled V-twin produces 111 hp and 91.1Nm of torque, with a curb weight of 175kg. Seat height is 815mm, lowerable to 775mm with an optional kit. Indian pricing starts at ₹13.99 lakh.
Looking at the spec sheet, dropping displacement from the old 937cc to 890cc while still pulling 111 horsepower is thrilling. Losing 5.9kg on the engine alone and about 4kg overall is the kind of detail that gets my pulse up. Brembo brakes, Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tires, a 6-axis IMU — packing all that into this price point is more than I expected.

The MT series still feels like the more thrilling choice to me.
That silhouette is still what makes a Monster a Monster.
Dropping the seat to 775mm is kind to shorter riders.
At 775mm even someone around 160cm should feel secure flat-footed.
13.99 lakh rupees is basically premium-car money over there.
Yeah, that's out of reach for most regular buyers.
111hp at 175kg is genuinely light.
